Here is a Well-Worn, Hand Forged Chopper mounted on its early cutting board, circa Early-Mid 19th Century. While both sides have been used, the top side shows the longest, continuous use. Choppers were common utilitarian pieces on every farm and in every home. Yet early examples seem more difficult to find. They make great displays in country settings and they are wonderful examples of utilitarian works becoming folk art. This piece even has a hook on the end to hang it on a wall. The base is 13” in length, 7 ¾’ in width, and 1 ¾” in height. The cutter and handle are 11 ¼” in length; the cutter itself is 3 ¾” in length. The piece has been cleaned and waxed and is ready to display. (MX037) Click on Photo for larger image. Contact us for additional photos. Price $85 plus shipping |

The Flask, made of copper and brass, appears to have been cleaned a good long time ago and has a fine aged patina at this point. It measures 9” from the base to the top, and it is 3 ¾” wide. The cord is a later addition. Rare Piece – Excellent Condition. (MX053) Click on Photo for larger image. Contact us for additional photos. Price $295 plus shipping

Here is a Terrific Primitive Carrier with very early Dove-tailed construction and a Jointed center board, circa Early-mid 19th Century. The handle appears to have been added at a later date with the use of early iron screws. The remaining paint is original and there are early glued cracks and breaks. The carrier is 16 ½” in length, 9 3/8” in width, and 7” in height. If you are looking for examples of legitimate early primitives that represent utilitarian objects from our past, this is a fine example, simple because its character reflects its history.

Terrific
Staved Bucket with Interlocked Sapling Bands, looks to have been used as
a Sap Bucket. Circa Early 1800s. The Exterior has been cleaned and
either stained or waxed a long time ago; the interior and bottom are
totally untouched; the extended stave with the hole has had the center
piece break and been reattached. Beyond a couple of odd bug holes in the
sapling bands, it’s a great early piece. The bucket is 11 ½” tall and 11
¼” in diameter at the base with a slight taper toward the top. See Neuman’s Antique Country Furnishings (MX031) Click on Photo for larger image. Contact us for additional photos. SALE PRICE $150 plus $15 shipping
